Andrew tells the story of how he was first inspired by Star Trek, Apple's Bill Atkinson in 1987 then Steve Jobs. This interview is full of anecdotes about how Andrew hitched his star to Steve Jobs, NeXT, then Apple's iOS, never looked back and was richly rewarded. Will Shipley has described Andrew as "The Godfather of the Indie developers." Anyone who's thinking about becoming (or flourishing as) an app developer will find Andrew's story fascinating and inspiring.
